Like this old shape.  In the 90's when I was just a whee lad loads of the blokes at our club had these and V6's.

Any idea if these will be UK made?

I don't know, it would be nice if they were. Price wise i think your looking at 450 for the le on this. Which for that kind of money you want it UK made!

Thanks for the post!

Good to see Slazenger are going back to the more original V12 shape.  I'm nto really a fan of the new sticker on the blade but i'll definitely be buying one.........even though I already have 3 vintage V12's and two retro versions = 5 !!!!

Oh sh*t!!!! I've wanted this to happen for so long, I think I might have to buy one of these - although I'd like to find a stockist somewhere where I can swing one around.

Do we know if any stockists down South will be doing them?

I wish they'd make a proper update V500, but this is intriguing

I would think @Uzi Sports may well do so.
